(NEWSER) – After Ryan Braun received a suspension for his involvement in the Biogenesis clinic PED scandal, things are looking bleak for Yankee Alex Rodriguez. A-Rod's punishment could be far worse than Braun's, according to CBS New York: A baseball insider says he may face a lifetime ban. Indeed, sources tell ESPN the evidence against Rodriguez is "far beyond" what was in the Braun file. The third baseman is reportedly "trying to make a deal" with Major League Baseball officials, a source tells ESPN, which notes the Yankee could face more trouble because the MLB thinks he interfered with the investigation.
